Chicago Defender Newspaper

I learned today that the Chicago Defender newspaper, a black newspaper out of Chicago, reported news from Tennessee! It didn’t occur to me to think to check this as a source of information on my own, but I was doing some searching for the Merry’s and came across news of them that was reported in the Chicago Defender. I have access to the Chicago Defender from 1910-1975. It will be quite fun to look for Nashville related information!
